PDS: The Planetary Atmospheres Node
Introduction
A collaborative effort between the NASA Space Science Coordinated Archive (NSSDCA) and the NASA Planetary Data System Atmospheres Node (ATM) & Planetary Plasma Interactions Node (PPI) to restore past Venus science data from NSSDCA deep archives to modern usable formats with the PDS4 Archive Standard. The NSSDCA and PDS aim to provide new access to these rich and priceless historical data for new analyses preparing for humanity’s return to Venus.
